Good evening, folks! A few hours ago I installed FreeBSD on a new machine. This is the only one I have with a USB-mouse attached (the stated Copperhead) - actually, it's the only machine I have with any type of mouse attached. :-) FreeBSD boots fine and also recognizes the mouse correctly: kernel: uhid0: Razer Razer Copperhead Laser Mouse, rev 2.00/21.00, addr 2, iclass 3/1 Well, as you can see, it's recognized correctly by name, but seemingly not as a mouse. The result is that FreeBSD starts "typing" letters, when I move the mouse. At the same time my "real" keyboard doesn't work (IBM Model M - PS/2 of course). If I want a keyboard I have to unplug the mouse from the computer. Everything works as it should then - apart from the mouse of course. Aunty Google only revealed one "real" fact to me (which I actually expected): A USB mouse should probably be logged as ums, not as uhid. Is the fact that the mouse has 7 keys confusing FreeBSD or did I mess up somewhere? Good night peeps! :-) Chris
